Flight Controller For Drone

[ceeeegenre]

Hello everyone!

I am new on this forum and in the world of robotics.
We (me and my friend) are trying to build a kind of heavy drone, which means every motor will receive a huge power (and then Voltage).
The Flight Controllers available on this webiste all have a limited voltage/current working range. (For instance robotshop.com/uk/arduino-un … oller.html)
Do you know if such controller need to be pluged directly on the batteries/motors OR if we can use them on a wider range of power with some trick?

Hi CeeeeGenre,

The voltage is not really a concern, the flight controller do not flow the motor voltage itself but rather send signals to ESC’s (motor controller) which can handle more voltage.
Most people these days will go for an ArduPilotcompatible flight controller like the PixHawkand PixHawk V2.1 but we also have our Lynxmotion Quadrino Nano which is an Arduino ATmega 2560 board with all sensors integrated.
